Sony launches special section of PlayStation Store offering free games for those put out by PlayStation Network outage.
Sony is reportedly telling its development partners to expect its online marketplace to come back next week. There are more than 2 million creations in ModNation Racers, and this trailer features just a few of the many.
You have a variety of options when customizing your character including various skins, masks, facial hair and decals. The track creator is easy to get to grips with. All you do is drive over flat terrain and paint the road from the start of the race to the finish.
You also have other options such as deforming the land or adding items, lakes, mountains, buildings, animals, and customizing the time of day. The mechanics of the game are essentially the same with very little difference. You have the usual power ups, weapons and four player split screen. Modnation Racers is a fairly standard racing game. This game is best suited for people who love go karting games want something new.
You have to create stuff. While there are pre-generated tracks this game focuses on user created content. After creating their tracks, players can share them on the PlayStation Network. After downloading and trying tracks, players can rate tracks, allowing other users to see which tracks are most popular. Players are able to download and play every level created by other players. Also, if a player downloads a track, they can "remix it" with a bit of their own style and re-upload it, sharing it with the community.
The game features the aforementioned story campaign, single player and multiplayer modes via the PlayStation Network with up to 12 players, featuring matchmaking, leaderboards, friends list management, communication tools, and more. There is also split screen offline multiplayer for up to 4 players.
ModNation Racers features urban vinyl-styled characters ModNation Racers characters called Mods sport a vinyl style similar to the Munny figures. Progression through the career campaign unlocks items that can then be used to further customize your Mods, Karts, or Tracks creations.
These items are not only unlocked based upon progression, but also tied to certain achievements tied to individual races. This adds a bit of re-playability to the career campaign, although some of these challenges can require quite a bit of skill.
Offense vs. Defense For a slight change of pace from most cart racing games, ModNation Racers gives players a "boost meter" along with the ability to use it in multiple ways. Performing stylish activities such as drifting or spinning during a mid-air jump will fill your meter, but you can choose to use it for a speed boost, or hold onto it to use as an on-demand shield to protect against attacks from other racers.
This encourages racers in the lead to actively build up their boost meter so they can protect that 1st place finish come the final lap. You can also use the right analogue stick to bump your carts into other players forcing them to crash into walls or slow down, this adds a risk - reward mechanic as if you miss your opponent you suffer a slowdown yourself. Weapon Leveling System ModNation Racers features a leveling system for the weapons, wherein after the initial pick-up of a weapon orb, subsequent acquisition of more orbs will power-up the currently held weapon up to 3 times.
